If avr-libc is updated in oeneric, the arduino package will have to be patched as well (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=633659)

That's an easy fix, but if you're taking care of avr-libc please take care of arduino at the same time.

Debian might be putting a beta version of arduino 1.0 into experimental that will also contain that bug fix, but I do not suggest that Ubuntu use that one (wait for it to get to unstable) since there will be problems with file permissions and renaming of .pde files to .ino extension. It would be best to stick with the version ubuntu currently has and just patch it to work with avr-libc 1.7.1 (if avr-libc is upgraded)
